| Legally Blonde turns 10 |
|
For those who don't know what I am talking about... it' a story that goes a little like this... "When a blonde sorority queen is dumped by her boyfriend, she decides to follow him to law school to get him back and, once there, learns she has more legal savvy than she ever imagined." It's a sweet comedy that really launched one of the most successfully actresses of the last ten years to stardom. But since then, she married and divorced blonde spunk Ryan Phillippe whose career has kinda ebbed and flowed with B-Grade productions. And she has of course moved largely in to production herself, financing some very successful movies since then. Feel old yet? I know a few of in the office here certainly are! Here's a scene from the movie to take us all down memory lane a little. |
